I think I know the answer, but worth a try to ask!

 

Has anyone found a way of turning off the green light near the Emergency button, or do I have to resort to electrical tape? 😉

I guess it needs to be visible so that the occupants can easily find it in the dark in an emergency.

 

I doubt therefore it will be easily deactivated.

But if you do not have Skoda connect, the buttons don't do anything, and the light is still on and just an annoyance.  

Really? All UK-sourced Kodiaq's have the fully operational SOS feature.

 

It's operation is not related to Skoda Connect either, you don't need to subscribe to Skoda Connect for the SOS function to work.
